intervals when he was not in prison he
used to come back to her whenever she
got situation and compelled her to
keep him. The poor woman thereupon
married a second husband, who under
took TO protect her from the first.

noon two white teachers, accompanied by
ten colored female students from Clark
University, entered the gospel tent at
Hunter and Lloyd streets and took seats
among the audience. As many persons
who came in had to remain standing, all
the seats.b being taken, an usher requested
the colored girls to go to the portion Of

seeing so many testimonials extolline

little learning is dangerous thing"
and he forgets that there is only ma
terial enough for one DR.. Depew. In

rashly essays to be equal with easy

that he astonished the Edinburghers

Sydney Smith as one 9ff-slhe splendid
galaxy of Scotland's stars" The truth
is that Sydney Smith was born in
Essex, England, was graduated at Ok
ford and began his labors in the Church
in Willis. He was in Scotland only a
few years and would have pondered
much upon the uncertain nature Of fame
if he had known that within less than
half century after his death he would
be subjected 70 the use Mr.. Blaine has
put him to. The Scotch have never
forgiven Sydney for saying that ut re-
quires surgical operation to get o
